BLAST-N-SHINE PRESSURE WASHING
CUSTOMER CONTRACT
This Customer Contract (the “Contract”), by and between BLAST-N-SHINE PRESSURE
WASHING (“Company”) and Client, sometimes referred to herein collectively as the “Parties”, is
made effective the moment that Client accepts Company’s proposal or estimate.
WHEREAS, Company wishes for Client to understand Company’s expectations in
exchange for the services Company provides;
WHEREAS, Company wishes to provide residential and commercial exterior cleaning
services, such as pressure washing, soft washing, roof cleaning, window cleaning, deck cleaning,
and gutter cleaning services to Client in accordance with the terms of this Contract.
WHEREAS, Client wishes for Company to perform the aforementioned services at
Client’s property in accordance with the terms of this Contract.
NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, including but not limited to
the consideration described below, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged,
the Parties agree as follows:
1.
Acceptance of Terms. Client understands that by accepting an estimate provided
by Company, Client agrees to all of the terms and conditions contained in this Contract. Client
authorizes Company to accomplish the job specified in the estimate. Client further agrees to hold
Company harmless for any property damage not caused by Company’s negligence. Company is
not responsible for damages already noted during pre-inspection, when providing an estimate, or
during on-site pre-work inspection, including but not limited to, damages to loose siding, paint,
wood, trim, windows, oxidation, landscaping, or roofing.
2.
Binding Agreement. This Contract serves as a binding agreement between Client
and Company. This Contract constitutes the sole and entire agreement between the parties hereto
and no modification of this Contract shall be binding unless signed by all parties or assigns to this
Contract. No representation, promise, or inducement not included in this Contract shall be binding
on any party hereto.
3.
Authorizations.
a.
Client shall allow Company, its employees, and representatives access to
Client’s property to accomplish the requested cleaning services. Client further agrees to allow
Company to visit the property prior to the date of service for assessment and after the services
were performed for a follow-up check. The aforementioned visits may be done with short or no
notice.
b.
On the date of service, Client agrees to allow Company to use the
residential/commercial water source via an outdoor spigot. In areas where well water is used or
there is low water pressure, Client agrees to provide advance notice of such conditions so Company
can prepare and bring an adequate amount of water for the cleaning service. In the event Company
is required to supplement the water supply, Client understands that additional charges will be
assessed to Client as extra equipment is needed to transport water and feed the water from the
tanks. These additional fees will vary depending on factors like location and the quantity of water
needed.
c.
Company equipment is powered by Company’s systems, so Company will
not connect to Client’s home’s electrical supply. Company’s crew members will inspect Client’s
spigot to ensure that there is no damage in it and the area surrounding. Company’s crew members
will take before and after photographs documenting the condition of the spigot. Client agrees that
Company shall not be held liable for either previously damaged spigot issues or issues outside
Client’s home unrelated to cleaning services.
d.
Company cannot proceed with any washing or cleaning service if Client has
ongoing construction and/or home improvement projects going on. Client is hereby advised to
schedule Company’s services to be performed on dates when no construction and/or home
improvement projects are being completed. A cancellation fee of $150.00 shall be charged to
Client if Company arrives at Client’s property for washing and/or cleanings and construction
and/or home improvement projects are ongoing.
e.
During unavoidable circumstances, such as emergency or inclement
weather conditions, Company shall perform the requested cleaning services on the next available
business day. Client acknowledges that as much as Company wants to accommodate a quick
reschedule, Company has other considerations to take into account such as working with other
scheduled clients and weather situations.
4.
Payment Terms.
a.
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, payment is due upon the
completion of work. Company accepts all forms of payment including cash, check, or credit. If
paying with credit, Company accepts paythrough through a credit card processor link or the office
for the privacy and security of Company’s information. Any invoice or scheduled payment over
10 days past due will be subject to a 7% late fee. If any invoice or scheduled payment goes 30
days past due, Company shall have the right to file a civil suit to collect the outstanding debt.
Company further reserves the right to refuse to continue to do business with a client who is
currently past due or who has been 30+ days past due more than once.
b.
If Client and Company have a net 30 days’ payment schedule, Client must
have payment submitted to Company within a 30-day grace period. Time is of the essence. Any
invoice or scheduled payment that is 30 days past due after the date of the Contract will be
subject to a 7% late fee. If payment is not received within 60 days of the due date, Company
reserves the right to file a civil suit to collect the outstanding debt. Company further reserves the
right to refuse to continue to do business with a client under a payment schedule who is currently
past due or who has been 60+ days past due more than once.
BLAST-N-SHINE PRESSURE WASHING
5.
Risks and Releases of Liability.
a.
Company has expert technicians who operate the equipment used in any
cleaning service. Company always takes extra precautions not only to keep Company’s technicians
safe but also to avoid causing any damage to Client’s property. Company understands the type of
pressure that a surface needs when cleaning, like the use of low pressure on delicate surfaces.
However, damage can be inevitable due to various reasons like poor maintenance, neglect, or low-
grade building materials. Client is advised to implement routine maintenance on the home’s
surface and also ensure a watertight seal to the home before the date of cleaning to avoid damage.
Company shall not be held liable for any damages that occur due to improper maintenance, neglect,
or low-grade building materials.
b.
On the date of the cleaning service, Company will note any pre-existing
damage to the area to be serviced using a checklist sheet that will be signed by Client. In cases
when Client cannot sign, Company will note the absence and take photos of the noted damages.
Client or the homeowner should also sign the checklist sheet as proof that they have been informed
of any damage. If Client is not present, Company’s employee in charge of the service will notify
Client of the noted damages with supporting documents. If Company found any new damage, the
services will stop until Client can see the damage and acknowledge its existence.
c.
Company has a set of procedures to protect plant life in the area. Client
understands that cleaning or washing is scheduled during midday sun, and there is a possibility of
leaf burn, as water can get around the plant during the cleaning procedures. Any issues with plant
life within the area of washing will be evaluated by Company to determine the plan of action. It is
Client’s responsibility to know what plants on the property are suffering from leaf burn or are
wilted upon arrival. Company is not liable for any damages to plants or landscape that were burned
prior to Company showing up, as Company takes high precaution in treating landscape with proper
care.
6.
House Wash Acknowledgment.
a.
Client must have a water spigot available, or arrangements should have been
made with Company for water that will be brought to the site, subject to additional fees, as outlined
in Section 3(b) of this Contract. Client is hereby advised that Company’s service equipment needs
a direct connection to a water line and not on a water faucet.
b.
Client understands that any existing oxidation, flaws, and blemishes will be
more visible after cleaning. Vinyl siding that lacks maintenance and exposed to the sun is
susceptible to oxidation. Oxidation can cause a chalky, white powder on the surface, thus
eliminating the clear luster. The effects of oxidation can be noticeable only after cleaning, as it can
be covered with dirt and debris. This should not be pointed out as Company’s fault after cleaning,
as it is always discussed during pre-inspection and the cleaning process unless it is due to the
company’s negligence.
c.
Client should shut off all electric outlets and fixtures outside before the
arrival of Company’s team as a precaution.
d.
In case of “site unseen estimates” where Company uses only photos
provided by Client, Eagle view software, Google maps, or other locally listed information,
Company cannot take note of any flaws in exterior surfaces. However, Company will do its best
to point out any flaws in exterior surfaces on the date of cleaning.
e.
Client
understands
that
Company
uses
a
cleaning
solution
that
is
specifically formulated for their cleaning services. It is proven not to cause any discoloration or
damage to home siding. Client should not be alarmed if Client notices the faint rusty color on
Client’s siding. These are called weep holes to allow ventilation and allow condensation to drain
out. However, these can be little homes for bugs. Debris and dirt can also accumulate in these
holes. After washing, as it goes to the drying process, leftover water or bug juices drained from
these holes. These can be bug feces, mold, and debris. These will come off with the rain, morning
dew, or garden hose. These are not stains and are not permanent. If the weep holes drip heavily,
Company agrees to do a visual inspection and a full rinse.
f.
Client understands that during house wash service, Client will also receive
basic window cleaning. This is different from the window cleaning done with a purified water pole
system. The basic cleaning will remove dirt and debris off windows but can leave water spots.
Company suggests removing window screens for a more effective wash, but does not guarantee
water spots or “hazing” will not occur.
g.
For thorough cleaning, Client is suggested to use Company’s more
advanced window cleaning services. This uses filtered water to be sure that nothing in the water
can leave streaks and water spots. Client understands that the window screen needs to be removed
before wash. Window screens can be brittle and delicate, which is why Company will not remove
them unless a consent form is signed by Client. Company will not be liable for worn and brittle
screens.
7.
Roof Treatment Acknowledgment.
a.
Client must have a water spigot available, or arrangements should have been
made with Company for water that will be brought to the site, subject to additional fees, as outlined
in Section 3(b) of this Contract. Client is hereby advised that Company’s service equipment needs
a direct connection to a water line and not on a water faucet.
b.
Client understands that Company uses a cleaning solution that is guaranteed
to kill damaging growths like algae, moss, or lichen. Roofs react differently to the solution,
meaning the result may vary. There are times when it takes more time to completely remove the
dead growths. The materials and the age of the roof, the location, and the amount of build-up can
affect the length of time to see the results. Company does not pull growth with a force, as it can
cause damage. However, if Client insists on Company doing so, Client should sign a waiver stating
that Company is not liable for any damage that it may cause and that Client understands that doing
so could void the warranty with the roof manufacturer.
c.
Client understands that roofs naturally suffer granular loss over time. Algae,
moss, and lichen can cause more significant granular loss. Also, after a roof cleaning, areas
affected by granular loss are more visible since no organic matter is covering it.
8.
Touch Ups on Roofs. Touch-ups on roofs may be needed after washing. There is
a possibility that washing may leave light brown areas after treatment and washing. These are just
dead algae, or the black streaks before treatment. In these cases, Client must understand that Client
needs to wait for dead algae to come off with the help of natural elements like rain and sun
exposure. These traces will fade after 6 to 8 weeks or longer, especially on shingles. If the traces
do not fade after 6 to 8 weeks, Client can contact Company so the parties can assess and decide
what to do next. The span of time can also determine if the reapplication of the solution is needed.
Touch-ups are not charged to Client given that it is necessary for proper treatment on the initial
quote.
9.
Client’s Obligations On Date of Service. Client hereby agrees to ensure that the
following preparations take place prior to Company’s arrival on the date of service:
a.
Doors and windows should be shut tightly.
b.
Please have all pet droppings removed from areas immediately around
home.
c.
Shut off all outside electrical outlets and fixtures at the breaker on the
scheduled date even before the team arrives.
d.
Remove window screens for better washing and rinsing.
e.
Keep pets and kids indoors before and during cleaning.
f.
Clear the area to be serviced and remove sensitive materials like rags,
doormats, outdoor furniture, and your vehicles from the areas being washed.
g.
Client should refrain from using other water outlets in the residence to
maintain the pressure or volume that is needed in cleaning.
h.
Have an accessible and activated water spigot, or other arrangements should
have been made with Company for water that will be brought to the site, subject to additional fees,
as outlined in Section 3(b) of this Contract. Client is hereby advised that Company’s service
equipment needs a direct connection to a water line and not on a water faucet. For maximum
pressure, Company should connect to a direct line and not on the faucet. Company needs a steady
pressure of 40 PSI.
Company has a set of procedures to cover electrical outlets. However, it is more applicable for the
client to shut off the electrical supply of all exterior outlets. As Company will clean windows,
Client should be the one to remove window screens, as it can be brittle and fragile. This will allow
Company to give a thorough cleaning to windows, leaving no streaks and marks if Client has
purchased the window cleaning package.

10.
Exclusions & Limitations.
a.
To secure a cleaning service, a 20%-30% deposit is required. This amount
is non-refundable and will be deducted from the total quoted price once the service is completed
on Client’s invoice. The deposit must be paid to keep Client’s scheduled slot in connection with
approving the quote sent via signature. As an example, if a job is quoted at $300.00, a $75.00
deposit is required, leaving the remaining $225.00 balance due after service. There are some cases
when a higher deposit is required depending on the material of the surface to be clean and the type
of cleaning that should be done. This will be prepared for Client with details from Company’s
office manager.
b.
A $55.00 fee will be assessed if the client does not have a stable water
source ready when the technicians have already arrived. The water pressure should always be
consistent at 40 PSI. This cannot be maintained if there is water failure and will then affect the
cleaning process. An example of water failure is when the filtration system fails or the well pump
stops and Company is not the one at fault. If water source can be a problem, Client must have other
options or must make some arrangements with Company for Company to bring water to the site,
which requires additional fees, as outlined in Section 3(b) of this Contract.
c.
A cancellation fee of $150.00 will be assessed if Client cancels service
without prior notice 72 hours or more before the date of service. The same applies when Company
has already arrived on the scheduled date and cleaning cannot proceed because of ongoing
construction work.
d.
A fee of $100.00 will be assessed if Company returns to the site to review
a noted issue or complaint by Client and Company finds that the issue was not caused by
Company’s negligence. An example is when a house cleaning is accomplished in the morning and
Company receives a call from a client in the evening saying that remaining debris is left in the
siding. An assigned crew performs a review and fills a checklist sheet first. When it was determined
that a lawn care service was performed in the afternoon and that the debris left on the siding was
made after Company had completed the wash, Company would not be considered at fault and the
$100.00 fee would be assessed.
e.
For window cleaning service using a purified water-fed pole system, Client
understands that Client is the one to remove the screen prior to the date of the cleaning service. If
not, a $100.00 fee will be assessed to cover the extra time and effort that Company will exert to
remove screens. Client further agrees that Company is not liable for damaged screens, as screen
removal needs prior arrangements with Company.
f.
A $45.00 processing fee will be assessed in the case of returned checks.
BLAST-N-SHINE PRESSURE WASHING

fading with standard house wash procedures, and Company is not liable
for paint runs or fading with these types of paint or any organic paint
runs or fading.
xix.
Faulty electrical outlet covers allowing water to seep in and enter the
outlet, causing fires or the breaker to throw.
xx.
Company is not responsible for the rare fogging issue with multi-pane
windows with bad seals.
j.

Company strives to make the expectations clear, and Company will not use pressure as a means of
removing a blight if damage would ensue.
k.
Company is not responsible for any ill effects to any substrates that were
not pre-discussed beforehand with an email in our inbox. If Company has not been notified in
advance in writing that something cannot have detergent upon it, Company is not responsible for
it.
l.
Company is not responsible for any water intrusion. Company will do its
best to mitigate any water intrusion, but Client acknowledges that bad seals around windows,
doors, and concrete can make this unavoidable.
11.
Content Use & Release. Client agrees to give Company permission to use photos,
videos, reviews, or descriptions of the property for the purpose of advertising. These will be used
without any compensation to Client. Client agrees not to initiate any civil action against Company
with regard to the use of the above media. Company will not reveal personal and/or sensitive
information like names and/or addresses. Upon Client’s approval, Company is allowed to display
a sign for marketing on the property for no more than seven days. If Client damages the signage,
Client will be charged the retail cost of the sign.

Company’s Damages Liability. Company is liable for any damage to properties
that is a direct result of the company’s negligence like operator errors and willful misconduct.
Damages must be reported to the company not more than two days after the completion of the
cleaning service, otherwise those damages are waived. Client agrees to allow Company 30
calendar days from the date of being notified of any potential damages to inspect and cure the
issue(s) prior to Client initiating any action related to the alleged damages.
13.
Severability.
If any provision of this Contract or the application thereof is held
invalid by a court, arbitrator, or government agency of competent jurisdiction, the Parties agree
that such a determination of invalidity shall not affect other provisions or applications of the

Contract which can be given effect without the invalid provisions and thus shall remain in full
force and effect or application.
14.
Attorneys’ Fees and Costs. If at any point either Party breaches the commitments
contained within this Contract, the non-breaching Party is entitled to recover all of its reasonable
attorneys’ fees and all other reasonable costs incurred in the preparation and service of any notice
or demand hereunder, whether or not a legal action is subsequently commenced.
15.
No Waiver of Breach. The failure to enforce any provision of this Contract shall
not be construed as a waiver of any such provision, nor prevent a Party thereafter from enforcing
the provision or any other provision of this Contract. The rights granted the Parties are cumulative,
and the election of one shall not constitute a waiver of such Party’s right to assert all other legal
and equitable remedies available under the circumstances.
16.
Choice of Law. The validity and construction of this Contract shall be determined
under Pennsylvania law, without regard to its internal conflicts of laws rules.
17.

courts, that the action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum or that venue of the
action, suit, or proceeding is improper.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Contract is made effective the moment that Client accepts
Company’s proposal or estimate.
